[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]the root of the problem starts from the top... not SB or CB, but WF, as in Wakefield HS. if and only if you fix Wakefield, all problems go away.[/quote]

a) fix what, exactly?
b) how does improving Wakefield address the issue of overcrowding at elementary schools that feed into it?[/quote]

Please explain what you mean by fix Wakefield. As of now it's new has plenty of space. I've only heard good things.[/quote]

There's no need to "fix" Wakefield. If your perception of Wakefield is that it is a poor choice because the test scores are low "fixing" it only increases the overcrowding problem. People who buy in the Wakefield pyramid largely do not share your opinion of the school (as demonstrated upthread - people aren't moving away.). I'm not saying they didn't leave before - they don't now, at least not in large numbers. The giant cohort of current elementary students whose parents are satisfied with their local school (minus overcrowding) are going to in increasing numbers keep their kids in middle and high school in SA. People who suggest otherwise typically don't actually live in SA. Stay in NA, I genuinely don't care, but I know my neighbors. You don't. [/quote]
